Kechi Okwuchi emerges America’s Got Talent 2017 finalist

Kechi Okwuchi has emerged a finalist of the 2017 edition of America’s Got Talent.

The Sosoliso plane crash survivor’s qualification, was confirmed on the official Instagram account of AGT, in a post that read: “Your #DunkinSave votes turned @kechi_agt into a finalist.”

The Nigerian singer was able to make it to the top 10, thanks to the Dunkin Save voting process, which gives viewers the opportunity to send the contestant of their choice into the last stage of the talent competition.

The Dunkin Save voting was between Kechi, a magician Colin Cloud, and a dance group Diavolo.

Okwuchi had earlier pleaded with her fans to help her earn a place on AGT finals, saying “I want nothing more”.

She had said: “Ok you guys know that I want nothing more than to earn my place on @agt. I have prayed incessantly that whatever happens, it’s for the right reasons and most importantly, God’s reasons.

“Therefore I believe that all this is ordained, and I can’t wait to share even more experiences with you guys, you amazing people who got me here. I love you guys and I thank you.”
